[Bug] Security Setting to hide username seems a little inconsistent.
[Bug] Security Setting to hide username seems a little inconsistent.
Also, I feel like it would make more sense to hide the whole thing including instance rather than just the username.

Hide usernames does me dirty and makes my username look like a censored n word
[Settings shortcut: Security > Hide username in account picker
Am I doing this for the ones that haven't seen the setting? Yes.
Am I also doing it because I've always wanted to post the link to a setting? Also yes.
I wanted to link it too - but I wasn't sure how to do it without typing it out manually. Is there another way?
You long-press the setting, and it gets copied, then you can paste it into the reply-box (I'm pasting it in-line, but I believe it makes a new line on its own) Settings shortcut: Security > Hide username in account picker
Hope this helps
Wait, it's just supposed to hide your username when you're viewing the app locally? I don't mean to be rude, but what is the use case for this? Do you frequently have people looking over your shoulder at the screen or something?
what is the use case for this?
Live streaming and screen recording.
Edit: grammar
Ah, that is an excellent use case and one that hadn't occurred to me at all. Thanks for clarifying that for me!
I was just playing around with settings and noticed it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Afaik it's a known issue but hasn't been fixed yet
Has LJ got an issue tracker on GitHub or somewhere else?
Oh lord I haven't even noticed. That isn't great.
It seems like the account is obfuscated at another place in the same corner, just to add to the inconsistent display
